12723778, This! and I've long argued it's his color that makes it less palatable...

less palatable to the masses, that is. But in essence Kanye is giving us stereotypical rock star, bad ass behavior. It just seems insane/disrespectful/douchey to most because we don't have any actual rock stars that exhibit that kind of behavior in the mainstream anymore, and then there's the issue of color and the fact that he's a rapper. Given those factors, he just ends up looking like an "angry black man", which very few people can actually look past in order to appreciate how artfully badass he really is. #kanyeshrug
